Question 1

is it possible that crest pro health mouthwash cause an allergic reaction?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Anything you're exposed to can cause any type of allergic reaction. If you suspect it is the mouthwash then discontinue use to see if things clear up. If not it may be some other thing that is causing this and you may have to see an allergist to be sure. Good luck.

Question 2

would crest pro health mouthwash cause an allergic reaction for any reason?

Accepted Answer

Possible reaction: If you have a rash or red, sore tissues in your mouth after repeatedly using Crest pro health mouthwash, you might be having a reaction to something in the mouthwash.  Stop using the mouthwash.  If you have trouble breathing or feel that your throat is closing up, get to the emergency immediately or call 911 to get help to you.

Question 3

me and my husband had sex with oral from him and he had used mouthwash now i have bumps and burning and itching could it be an allergic reaction?

Accepted Answer

Burning Symptoms: While unfamiliar with these symptoms, you may be correct that this is an allergic response to one of the ingredients in the mouthwash.  However, some std's can be spread by oral sex, which should be of concern.  My best advise is to be sure to visit your ob/gyne as soon as you can for a thorough examination to be sure that you are well and to get a definitive diagnosis and the proper treatment!

Question 4

i'm currently using a prescription mouthwash due to dry socket. my tongue itches and taste buds are inflamed. could it be an allergic reaction?

Accepted Answer

Better Safe/Sorry: If you think it may be an allergic reaction, simply do not use it again. It is not worth trying again to find out. You can substitute warm salt water in its place. Be sure to mention this to the dentist who prescribed it for future reference.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

: What you are describing are not typical allergic reactions. You should see an allergist for allergy testing if you are concerned or these symptoms persist

Question 6

am i allergic to lemon? when i drink lemonade my throat feels like it has a sort of coating on it. when i do mouthwash and eat citrus candy my tongue feels weird. is that related or a different issue? how can i be allergic to lemon but not orange?

Accepted Answer

: How can you be sensitive to one food out of many in a group but not others? They are analogous but not homologous, similar but not identical. You would be advised to discuss your "allergy" with a specialist Allergist.

Question 7

theres red blotches on the inside of my top lip and they are like burns and making my lips puffy. could this be an allergic reac.? to my mouth wash?

Accepted Answer

Hard to tell: An irritant reaction may be more likely.  When this type of problem recurs, it is helpful to try removing the possible trigger (mouthwash in this case) to see if it resolves.  Mucosal lesions need to be examined to help differentiate potential causes. Food, drug, cosmetic allergies/insensitivities are possible.  An Allergist can help.

Question 8

please advise if it's ok to use 2 different mouthwashes?

Accepted Answer

YES, IF?: Use one in the am and the other one in the pm.

Question 9

is  mouthwash effective?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Your priorities for a healthy mouth are brushing with a flouride toothpaste, flossing daily and seeing your dentist.  Using a mouth wash with flouride is great but not necessary.
Most mouthwashes are made to freshen your breath for a short period of time.
Pick one with flouride so it does two things instead of one.

Question 10

what do i do after using mouthwash?

Accepted Answer

See details: Rinse your mouth with water and don't do anything.
